Answers:
Your body will eat it's muscle very quickly!. You can test it by taking body composition tests!. You must use a very accurate method-such as NIR or Hydro-weighing!. I can lose two pounds of muscle in a day!. Muscle is the first thing your body breaks down!. If you have a smaller engine(muscle) then you need less fuel(fat) to keep it running!. Therefore your body will strip the muscle first before it starts to deplete all the fat!. (this is a simplistic answer)

If you don't want your body to eat it's muscle you need to feed it protein!. Complete protein!. Protein from soy and other plants are not complete!. They are either deficient in Amino acids or have them in the wrong concentrations/ratio for human muscle!. You just aren't getting enough food!. You need to eat more food more often!. I wouldn't eat anything that you have listed!.

Eat more veggies and lean protein-chicken or fish!. You should be eating at least 5 times per day!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have the same problem, and on top of which I have a stomach condition not helping at all!. I swim 7000 yards a day, which is 2000 calories in that two hour period alone!. So I need to get about 4500 calories in me a day, with poor appetite and usually bad digestion of food!.

What I do is make sure you get in as many meals as possible!. Do breakfast, brunch (if possible at school), lunch, a meal after school, and meal at dinner time, and a small meal a few hours after dinner!. You'll be able to eat a lot more throughout the day if you stagger your eating!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
